Accepted Solution
A:
Answer: B is your correct answer.Step-by-step explanation: If she has already made $95.00 from selling jam and made $24.00 from demonstrations you add those together to get $119. Then you subtract $119.00 from $450.00 and you'll have $331.00 left to make. Finally you divide $331.00 by $5.00 (cost of jam) and you'll find that you have to sell 66 more jars of jam.
